Reserve "Ubsunurskaya kotlovina"

Republic of Tyva

 Attractions of the Republic of Tyva The unique state natural biosphere reserve "Ubsunur hollow" is one of the key areas of the Altai-Sayan ecoregion. Which, in turn, is included in the list of "Global 200" - a list of virgin or little-changed ecoregions of the world.

The rich cultural and historical heritage of the Republic of Tuva impresses with its amazing diversity and uncommonness. The ethnic culture of the Tuvinians, preserved in national art, architecture and traditions, is considered one of the most interesting in the world. Unprecedented her symbols are considered throat singing khoomei and a specific kind of stone-carving craft. Therefore, local craftsmen have something to brag about.

By the way, the capital of Tyva - Kyzyl - is also a city of interest. Here, right on the central square in front of the facade of the musical drama theater, a very unique object for the republic, the Buddhist prayer drum, is immortalized.

The natural attractions of the Republic of Tyva are no less unique and magnificent . There are about three dozen protected areas, including UNESCO World Heritage Site - Ubsunur Hollow . The reserve is especially valuable because practically all landscapes in the temperate zone of the Earth are concentrated on its territory: ice taiga, tundra, alpine meadows, deserts and t . d . Actually this is the largest untouched watershed in Central Asia, where there are thousands and thousands of non-stunted mounds of local nomadic tribes . In the northeast of Tyva there is another unique natural reserve "Azas", unsurpassed by the number of its own hydro resources . It is represented by countless mountain ranges, glaciers, lakes and, of course, the richest fauna .

In the picturesque places of Tyva there are mineral lakes, curative springs and drinking mineral waters . In particular, the balneological resort Ush-Beldir enjoys great popularity, and extensive deposits of therapeutic mud are widely represented on Lake Cheder . In addition, Tuvans themselves have long enjoyed the healing properties of arzhans - cold mineral springs . So, in the upper reaches of Arzhan-Khem there are about 30 springs equipped with wooden bathing facilities and other amenities . People call them sources of Choigang .

Archaeological finds occupy a separate niche of the sights of the Republic of Tuva. The history of these lands is full of legends and mysteries. Not one nomadic tribe furrowed the boundless Tuvan steppes, leaving behind priceless riches. So, in 2008 the largest Scythian burial was discovered in Eastern Siberia - the Valley of the Kings. It's amazing that the mound has been preserved absolutely untouched, and the collection of found items - of artful gold, bronze and leather products - is staggering with its wealth.

However, there are even more precious discoveries in Tyva. In the valley of the river Uyuk, for example, found huge burial mounds, conditionally named Arzhans. In one of them, more than 20 kg of gold pieces of exclusive jewelry work were discovered. Some of them are kept in the National Museum named after Aldan-Maadyr in the city of Kyzyl.

By the way, the capital of Tyva - Kyzyl - is also a city of interest. Here, right on the central square in front of the facade of the musical drama theater, a very unique object for the republic - a Buddhist prayer drum - is immortalized. Well, perhaps, the existing architectural ensemble best expresses the very essence of the republic: it would seem, a typical Soviet square with fountains and a theater, only instead of a monument to Lenin - a Buddhist prayer drum.
